On Sunday, I participated in the Leukemia Society’s BIG Climb at the Columbia Tower in Seattle. That would be the tallest building in Seattle, and yes I climbed up the entire tower step by step. It was an exhausting and emotionally draining feat that I’m so glad I did. I got a late start to my training…two weeks prior to the Big Climb while the rest of my co-workers who were participating had started back in January. Needless to say, I’m just proud that I made it to the top! Yeah me!As an added bonus, I guess I made the Sunday evening news on KING 5, but I missed it. I tried to find the video to link to, but apparently it wasn’t a big enough story to keep on the website. If I ever find it, I will post it. According to my co-workers, I looked happy as can be. I think it was actually complete and utter relief that I finally made it to the top after 23 minutes of climbing. Next year I’m going for under 20 minutes!
It is the big black tall building on the right side of this photo.
